Iterative Mask Generation Method for Handling Occlusion in Optical Flow Assisted View Interpolation

Having a key role in 3D and free viewpoint TV applications, view interpolation techniques have attracted many researchers in recent years. In this paper we present a patch-based reconstruction scheme for view interpolation using optical flow disparity estimation. In the first step of the algorithm, reconstructed versions of the left and right views are obtained using the proposed patch-based scheme. Then mismatch masks are generated to find the …
